SGVD President . . . Rita Aleman…909-284-2384…[email protected] Hello Members, After reading the reports turned in, I have a much better sense of the work being put into your clubs. So many
fundraisers, so many projects and all this is done for the communities you all live in. Many clubs support children and veterans. Some support the conservation situation. There is such a variety among the 28 Clubs. Great volunteerism, great members and great job!! The SGVD Convention is April 17 & 18, 2020. If you haven’t registered, there is still time. Linda Koontz should
be contacted if your Club hasn’t given you information on how to attend. I’m so excited about Convention and the many things we have planned for you. This will be at the Courtyard by Marriott in Monrovia. Think about attending CFWC Convention on May 15-16th at LAX. This is close enough to attend and you will
have an opportunity to see the installation of Pam Ament as the new CFWC President. You don’t want to miss out. Our District will look strong, so plan now for May!!! For more information go to cfwc.org Thank you all for your support with the District Fashion Show. It is our only fundraiser.
SGVD 1ST Vice President…Rosette Clippinger…909-525-8828 It's amazing how much of the word's virtue comes from one little word: "TRY"
Trying something for the first time often calls for BRAVERY.
"Try, try, again," on the other hand, requires that sibling virtue: PERSEVERANCE
I would like to share with you an English poem written By Katherine Pyle:
How The Little Kite Learned To Fly
"I never can do it," the little kite said,
As he looked at the others high over his head.
"I know I should fall if I tried to fly."
"Try," said the big kite, only try!
Or I fear you never will learn at all.
But the little kite said: "I'm afraid I'll fall."
The big kite nodded: "Ah, well, good-by;
I am off." And he rose toward the tranquil sky.
Then the little kite's paper stirred at the sight.
And trembling he shook himself free for flight.
First whirling and frightened, then braver grown,
Up, up he rose through the air alone,
Till the big kite looking down could see
The little one rising steadily.
Then how the little kite thrilled with pride,
As he sailed with the big kite side by side!
While far below he could see the ground,
And the boys like small spots moving round.
They rested high in the quiet air,
And only the birds and clouds were there.
"Oh, how happy I am," the little kite cried.
"And all because I was brave and tried."
SGVD 2nd Vice President …Terry Perkins…909-89-7710
Important: The membership number you turn-in on the April Data Blank form is the number CFWC uses for
your membership number for Reports. If you want your membership number to be correct then make sure you
get as many members on the Data Blank as you have, the fewer the late paying members the better. In fact, no
late paying members would be great.
Honor Your 25 year Members at SGVD Convention
I need to receive the names of your 25-year members by March13, 2020.
IMPORTANT REMINDER: Please remember that after April each year, when submitting New/Late Paying
Form, you attached the names of only those you are adding. You do not need to turn in your club roster. Only
NEW members need to be bolded, underlined , or highlighted , so we know who is new. The late paying
members names are needed, but do not need to be bolded.
It is not the Data Blank due in April. IT IS THE CLUB INFORMATION FORM and it must be signed by the
club President.

2020 Convention to be a smashing success!
EARLY BIRD DINNER: Are you arriving at Convention on Thursday? Why not join us for dinner. Many
great restaurants to choose from, but you need to sign up at our Spring Council or if not attending Spring
Council, please email or call me to add your name to the list.
REMINDER: Convention Committee Meeting, Final planning - Thursday, March 19th, 2020, 9:30 at the
Peppertree in Glendora. I listened to our Committee members to not meet in February and only March….so I
am asking that if you are responsible for a task please attend.
I am aware there may be one or two that do not need to attend due to what they are responsible for. Please
come prepared to report, that everything you’re responsible for is meeting our timeline.
DELEGATES: Please check with Rita Even, our Credentials Chairman
regarding delegates for your club. You may also check our District Bylaws as to who gets to vote. Remember
we do have proposed Bylaws, Standing Rules and need to elect a member to be nominated at State Convention
for the possibility of serving on the Resolutions or Bylaw Committees for State. District Presidents will present
their nominees at the Area meetings at State Convention.
SGVD Corresponding Secretary….Marianne Jennings… (818) 398-7323

ADVOCATES FOR CHILDREN … Esthela Torres de Siegrist …626-442-0354
All Children and Youth Need Help…So does the PTA
Stacey Tauscher once opined: “We worry about what a child will become tomorrow; yet, we forget that the
child is someone today.” How very true that is. For this reason, it falls upon us to provide today’s children and
youth with the tools and resources that will enable them to succeed at the present moment and for every
moment thereafter.
Many of us are now seeing Girl Scouts selling their delicious cookies outside a supermarket or even in their
front yard. Give them consideration and remember: For young girls, it may be their first experience selling in
public. If you decide not to buy cookies, remember to be courteous and say, “No, thank you!” At least that
much. Remember when you were little and how you felt when you were rejected. It feels awful!!!!
Too many people mistakenly believe they must have children in school in order to join the PTA (the
Parent/Teacher Association.) This is simply not true. Any adult can join the PTA, an organization that for
more than 100 years has advocated for children: responsible for child labor laws, creating Kindergartens in our
schools, hot, nutritious lunches for school children, and so much more. If you join the PTA, you don’t even
have to attend any meetings, but your membership counts a great deal. Our elected officials pay attention to the
PTA.
The PTA provides an incredibly valuable, free educational resource online. It’s called ED100.org and
provides over 100 short, five-minute informative lessons on educational issues. It’s even available in Spanish.
Give it a look today!
AMENTIES and PROTECOL ….Linda Koontz ….909-593-3906
CHAIRMEN’S CHATS
Did you know: Do you want your prospective members/guests attending a
club meeting to witness how great your protocol is? Just remember some of
the following that will make your members, officers and chairmen look good:
1. When introducing “those seated at the Head Table”, the President
should request her Officers to stand or the President may script that
on her agenda for only her officers to see. Please listen to your President
and respect her request.
2. Do you introduce your Past Presidents, state Officer/Chairmen or District
Officer/Chairmen at a meeting? District acknowledges these special
members and hopes they’ve set the example for clubs to follow.
3. Do you have your Officers/Chairmen or those reporting come to the
lectern to use the microphone, or do they sit in their chair to report?
Very simple: This is called Protocol and Leadership Development.
4. Yes……. we live in a different time then years ago with smart phones,
laptops, mini pads etc. etc. Please remember to “silence” or put on
your phones on vibrate. While on this subject, it is distracting during a
meeting to be taking pictures with your phones. If you want to, go to
the back of the room and snap away!

CLUBMEMBER OF THE YEAR …………… Marian Hallin ~626-282-9210
All clubs now have a short time to choose a Member of the Year, write a 50-word essay telling why the person
was chosen and then fill out the application, have it signed by your President and submit it at Spring Council on
March 13, 2020. Please understand that this date is necessary for preparing on how many members are to be
honored and have their names printed in the Convention Program. It can be embarrassing to miss anyone or to
add them at a later date without this timely deadline.
I sincerely hope that all clubs will consider entering a Member to be honored. Every club has special people
that deserve recognition and this is a perfect time to share your appreciation with not only your own club but
with all of the participating clubs in SGVD.
You will find instructions in the SGVD 2019-2020 Yearbook on pages 61 and 62. Reading these will help you
in completing the necessary information. I will be out of State in February on the date of the SGVD Meeting
but will be glad to assist you in anyway, if help is needed. My email address is: [email protected]. My
telephone number is: 626-282-9210.

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE…………………..Mavis Hansen …626-441-6231
Kudos to the 15 clubs that turned in reports and again this chairman asks those clubs that
do not yet have a chairman? Why not?
We all know that we cannot do everything, true, but we can all do something, and no
matter how small, it will make a big difference to someone and that someone might be the one
who has left their home with next to nothing and a toothbrush, lipstick or pair of socks, small
items that we take for granted every day, could mean so very much. Even if you do not have a chairman, why
not have one meeting, maybe in May, which is Mother’s Day month, where members are asked to bring in some
small items, toiletries, makeup, haircare, you know, all those items we use every day, maybe even a large purse
to put them in. Just think, if every club in our district helped only one woman, that would make 28 happy
women. Every little bit helps!
With hopes that this chairman has urged and encouraged your club to participate. Let’s see how many
clubs will take on this project! Will You???
Thanks for reading this report today, thinking about it and deciding to participate in a MOTHER”S
DAY IN MAY PROJECT.
INTERNATIONAL OUTREACH……………....Tina Ly……626-234-7754.
Some of you may know that I lived in Australia for 18 months from 2004 - 2006. My partner and I wanted to
take a career break in a warm weather, English-speaking, rugby country, and Australia won out over South
Africa. I went back to visit in 2015 and in July 2019. Raging fires over recent months have left me deeply
saddened that the people, animals, plants, and landscapes have suffered such immense tragedies. Below is an
article from the January 23, 2020 GFWC News & Notes e-newsletter. Thank you to all GFWC members for
your role in the healing of Australia.
GFWC Is Thinking of Australia
Catastrophic bushfires are devastating the land of
Australia. The thousands of people who have lost their
homes and have been forced to urgently evacuate are in
GFWC’s thoughts. So far, there’s been a total of 28 deaths
and 2,500 homes destroyed as the fire scatters through 25.5
million acres of land. Billions of animals have tragically
lost their lives. As the people of Australia work tirelessly to
rebuild their communities and restore wildlife, they are
faced with decreased resources. If you’re interested in
making a donation, here are three organizations that need
help.
Support Fire Fighters
Donate directly to the Rural Fire Service New South Wales. Its donation fund is registered with the Australian
Charities and Not-for-profits Commission.

Support Wildlife Rehabilitation
Donate to WIRES (Wildlife Information, Rescue, and Education Service, Inc.). Online donations will benefit
all areas affected by the wildfires.

Support Disaster Affected Communities
Donate to the Australian Red Cross, which is providing accommodations, water, food, and essential supplies.

KINDNESS ANGEL CHAIRMAN… Pat Borchard…909-576-4382
Just wanted to say thank you to the following clubs that
submitted their Kindness Angel narratives with picture at Birthday Council.
LEADERSHIP CHAIRMAN…. Toby Kahan …909-720-3532
Ask yourself, "What is the most valuable use of my time right now?" In other words, "What is my biggest task
of all at this moment?"
This is the core question of time management. Answering this question correctly is the key to overcoming
procrastination and becoming a highly productive person. Every hour of every day, one task represents the most
valuable use of your time at that moment. Your job is to ask yourself this question, over and over again, and to
always be working on the answer to it, whatever it is.
When taking a Leadership position you have to organize your time wisely. Getting help from others will
lessen the burden but it is ultimately your responsibility to make sure things get done in a timely manner. We
all waste time everyday doing the things that are not on the list, so get into the habit of making a list each night
of tasks that must be started or completed. This will help you feel good and organized!
Our District Convention is coming in April. Has your club selected Delegates? Remember all delegates must
be voted on by the club at a General Meeting. If selected to serve as a Delegate, your club should pay your
registration fee and if possible at least one meal function. Delegates are required to attend all sessions and take
back information to their club. They are part of the voting body at Convention and should come prepared to
vote on Bylaws and Standing Rules that have been discussed at a Club Meeting prior to Convention. Any
questions, feel free to contact me.

SGVD President’s Scrapbook Chairman…Pat Borchard…909-576-4382
Scrapbook pages for President Rita’s scrapbook were distributed at the January 24, 2020
Birthday Council. Make the page a memory for our District President. The turn in
deadline for your scrapbook page is no later than March 13, 2020, at Spring Council.
I cannot accept your pages at Convention. Thank you Charter Oak Woman’s Club and Whittier Woman’s
Club for turning in your page at the February 14th District meeting. Hope all of you will take the time and
have fun creating a me
WOMEN’S HISTORY/RESOURCE CENTER…Diane Sexton….626-316-004
Celebrating Women’s History Month
Did you know that Women’s History Month started as Women’s History Week? It began as a local celebration
in Santa Rosa, California by a task force of women who planned and executed a “Women’s History Week” in
1978. Two years later, a partnership of women’s groups, led by the National Women’s History Project
successfully lobbied for national recognition. In 1980, President Jimmy Carter issued the first Presidential
Proclamation declaring the Week of March 8th, 1980 as National Women’s History Week.
“From the first settlers who came to our shores, from the first American Indian families who befriended them,
men and women have worked together to build this nation. Too often the women were unsung and sometimes
their contributions went unnoticed. But the achievements, leadership, courage, strength and love of the women
who built America was as vital as that of the men whose names we know so well.” President Jimmy
Carter’s Message designating National Women’s History Week.
14
Honoring women’s achievements and courage with a designated “history week” remained a Presidential
Proclamation until 1995 when Congress passed additional resolutions requesting and authorizing the President
to proclaim March of each year as “Women’s History Month.” The rest is history!
There is still much to be done by women, for women and our club members take this responsibility to heart.
We honor our club’s “Voices of the Past” while we are making history today. We are today’s “Women of
History.” For some fresh ideas on projects to celebrate and observe National Women’s History Month, here are
some ideas gleaned from our Club members and from other women’s groups:
1. Put it in writing
Think of a woman you look up to and admire. She can be someone in your Club, personal life or a public
figure. Write her a letter describing the impact she has had on your life.
2. Study up on women’s history
Share what you’ve learned with others. Check out a museum who is dedicated to the accomplishments
of women. Many venues set up special exhibits during the month of march.
3. Have a girl’s lunch
Take your mother, grandmother, great-aunt Rita or your cousin to lunch. This can be a chance to spend
some one-on-one time with the women in your life. Who knows, they may reveal some interesting
stories and accomplishments you’ve never heard before.
4. Build a Riveting Photo Booth
Build a photo booth with props that are symbols of women who made history:
• Red bandana for Rosie the Riveter
• Lace collar for Ruth Bader Ginsburg
• Goggles for Amelia Earhart
• Stuffed monkey and safari hat for Jane Goodall
• Nurse’s hat for Florence Nightingale
• Chemistry kit for Marie Curie
Take a picture of the gals striking a pose with your display
5. Learn about other creative women
Did you know that the refrigerator, computer software, the dishwasher and even Monopoly were all
invented by women? To learn more about the other 18 inventions, check out the website, www.Women
that Changed the World!
As we celebrate women’s accomplishments this month, let us be thankful for our leaders who struggled for
equality – Susan B. Anthony, Sojourner Truth, Lucy Stone, Lucretia Mott, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Harriet
Tubman, and Alice Paul.
As noted by Dr. Gerda Lerner in 1980, “Women’s History is Women’s Right.” “It is an essential and
indispensable heritage from which we can draw pride, comfort, courage, and long-range vision.”
